Whole reason some of us got into NSDM in the first place. Like the news.

BELLINGHAM, WA - PRNewswire-FirstCall - May 10
BELLINGHAM, WA, May 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- North Star Diamonds, Inc. (NQB Pink Sheets: NSDM) is pleased to announce that Walter Stunder, President and CEO of NSDM, has left for Ukraine to meet with representatives of the new government which was elected in Ukraine in December. Ukraine had its "orange revolution" in which a pro-western government, led by President Victor Yuschenko, has vowed to take Ukraine to a more free market direction. Initial indications are that Ukraine is headed in that direction already. "I'm very positive that North Star Diamonds Inc. (NSDM) will be able to continue the exploration for diamonds in Ukraine under more favorable terms and under more stable conditions," said Walter Stunder, "There is more optimism in the mining industry in Ukraine."

Upon his return from Ukraine, he will travel to Manitoba to begin the geophysical and drilling programs there. In the meantime, NSDM is continuing its diamond marketing program by offering shareholders deeply discounted prices on diamonds. For more information on the prices offered to shareholders, you can contact Lena by phone, fax, or email ([e-mail]).
